The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether he plans to issue a new round of the Traveller Site Fund.

Answered by Nesil Caliskan

There are no plans to issue a new round of the Traveller Site Fund. Traveller sites fall within the scope of the new £39bn Social and Affordable Homes Programme. Bidding for the Programme opened in February and closed on 15th April for Strategic Partnerships. Those bids are still being assessed.
